New Years Resolution

Every single year, without fail, my new year resolution slowly fades with the passing of time. Every single year. My previous promises consisted of less caffeine, cleaner room, healthier foods, and more exercise. When looking back on these resolutions, I feel slightly ashamed. IN comparison to all the problems of the world, my problems seem downright pitiful. So this year my resolution will be for someone other than me. This year, my pledge is going to consist of a few acts..
1. Become a "Big Sis" at the Boys & Girls Club
2. Volunteer at the Human Society
3. Continue being Vegetarian 
I have a good feeling these resolutions will stick a little better than the ones in the past :)

To delete, Or not to delete

Facebook: The epitome of drama.

      I created my facebook a little over a year ago, and it immediately overtook my obsession with myspace. It's not until I graduated high school that facebook started to irk me. People started posting their to do lists, and seemingly thought people cared to know there every move. Now, not everyone annoys me with their status', just the ones that solely post for attention. Since I've graduated, I've learned to, well, let things go, or  move on, I should say. However, facebook is making it really hard for me to fully move on from things. Thus, the thought arose! DELETE DELETE DELETE! I thought to myself, "I don't need facebook to let people know I have a life." Then the deal breaker comes into play...Grandma.
     My Grandma is my biggest fan in every aspect of my life, including facebook. Liking, posting, and commenting have became my new "up to date" Grandma's favorite things to do. So I balanced the pros and cons. And have come to the conclusion...HIDE! The beauty of the "hide" button. That alone saved the life of my facebook. From now on, the annoying status crazed people are hidden from my viewing eyes. And I'm left with the people who I care about. The people who's lives' I care to know about. Not people who I'm trying to forgive and forget. Bonus: No one's feelings get squashed by the severance of the facebook official friendship we share. Ultimately, everyone is happy...especially Grandma :)

The Beautiful Magic of Caffeine

Mmmm Coffee.
My coffee addiction came on very quickly by a demanding cause...
MID-TERMS
It then receded with time. Stress levels went down, so did the caffeine intake.
Once again, it's that time. Now, the cause is even more demanding. Frankly, more terrifying
Ohhh Finals!
So, today till December 16, I will consume enormous amounts of caffeine and deprive myself of sleep. 
C'mon Christmas break, you can't get here soon enough. I am ready for ridiculous amounts of food, sleep and television. Caffeine is my only allie is this treacherous mission, three finals..three days.
Starbucks, meet your newest #1 customer :)
